Review on Powerful TEP 1-in-4 Out AGU Fused Eye Candy Power Distribution Blocks for Car, Truck, Offroad by Andy Metzger

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works perfectly! But the blue LEDs are on all the time.

This does what it's supposed to do and is fairly compact for a 4-way junction box that works both positive and ground. However, the light doesn't seem to turn off when not in use. I'm afraid this will drain my car battery after a while. Underneath each fuse slot are blue indicators that light up when plugged in, as well as a display in the corner. All of this is always included for me. Also, the voltage gauge doesn't seem to show anything useful. My capacitor has a voltage readout that works and the readings on that block don't make much sense. It's okay if you have a block hidden somewhere, but it still doesn't solve the problem of the blue LEDs always on and the battery constantly draining. If the company doesn't respond with a solution I will go back and try something else. EDIT: The company responded, stating that LEDs have sufficiently low power consumption that it would take several months to drain the battery. enough to prevent the car from starting. It's also possible to disconnect the LED wires inside the unit if you're really concerned. I upgraded this from 3 to 4 stars because this block is a great space saver as it has both plus and ground in the same block. This thing has 10 thick wires hanging from it and it's still tucked under my seat (inside the seat, not on the floor) with no space issues. Also, my car is small (Mazda 3 GT 2017).
